We have not the luxury, the gay, the space nor the communism. My dreams… shattered.
The reality of working with black people will mean you slip up and use some casual racism sometimes. These laws are going to add fear to speaking to coloreds let alone hiring them. And what if they’re abused?
The reality of working with women will mean you slip up and and get handsy with them sometimes. These laws are going to add fear to speaking to respectable women let alone hiring them. And what if I’m just talking with the guys?
I didn’t always know that the turban wearing guy at the office wasn’t a Muslim but was actually a Sikh. But I didn’t need to be told twice, and if I did it was never with malice.
Humor usually never ends up as a path towards solution unless the PERSON EXPERIENCING IT makes fun of it. It’s difference between laughing at someone and laughing with someone. It’s why there’s specific lemmy communities for ADHD and ADHD Women with their own specialized memes: They never accuse anyone of anything, and look at things from a kinder view. I have a boyfriend with ASD and the Autism memes fit to a T. It gives the self a sense of understanding.
But outsider humor? I see mentions of House and Zapp Brannigan and how it’s basically a setup for a joke involving the legal system. No mention of struggles or legitimate efforts to fix or understand the self. These are not jokes made from love. They are for the explicit purpose of othering. I’m not going to walk up to a tall black guy to call him a “Basketball American” anymore than you should call sexsomnia a “prewritten legal defense”.
The level of jokes in this comment thread (circa 7:28PM PT Apr. 28) tells me that people really, really don’t have great frames of reference for mental disorders of any kind. The article subheadings literally go
Sexsomnia can ruin lives
What triggers sexsomnia?
Behavioral treatments are also available
This shit ruins lives. Lost relationships, arrests, and a complete inability to find any amount of support because of the sensitive nature of the condition. I have ARFID, a condition I won’t even explain because it’s gonna attract trolls like flies. I have lived in fear because of how it is associated with kids. It dictates my entire life. I have to plan where I can and cannot go to all the time, every day, monitoring what I consume so I don’t fall into self destruction.
And yes. I wrote this to spur your imagination wild. Don’t mention it. Let the kneejerkers respond.
There is no direct cure for ARFID, just like the article explains for sexsomnia. I have had immense help with my condition when I found the right doctor. The fact that they understood my diagnosis and approached me with extreme respect made me cry. That’s how deprived of support I was at 22 years old.
Love thy neighbor. Don’t assume anything because you don’t someone’s demons.
Tone down the conspiracy theory angle. It’s lemmy, you can get more interaction by mentioning capitalism rather than censorship.
That’s the thing. I’m NOT feeling it.
It kinda comes out of the experience. There’s an outstanding Github issue that notes that a specific version of YT Music is broken past a certain version. Most of the patches fail to apply and you just get the minor ones. You can use the version just before with no issues. How can you litigate against lines of code that don’t even work? This is similar to the vulnerability that Yuzu gave up since they offered Patreon-exclusive updates to support a leaked BOTW:TOTK .iso. Easy to prove your intent there.
Oh this? It’s just a binary of assorted diffs and plugins to a yet unspecified target apk. Why yes, I will use the end product for personal, non-commercial use.
Some poor mfer’s shitty regex just got put on blast at a Twitter emergency software dev meeting.
Everybody Wants To Rule The World is the best song. Absolutely the closest I’ve ever gotten to drifting peacefully in the starry night sky. I wanted to cry when it was over. The ride operates on a 1-reservation a day system because it’s THAT good. I’m so sad I can’t ride it forever…
Can I at least wish that they would die in a manner most befitting of the way that they have lived? Thematically appropriate. Dies in the limelight with comedic timing after being asked to prove his mental acuity. Funeral is televised with literally everything gold plated. Crowdfunding for said event drains potential Republican fundraising efforts for a solid decade. Post-Trump Republicans trying to play up the demagogue position labeled as the new RINOs. All January 6th insurrectionists ultra convicted. Trump Estate dissolved pending all litigation. GOP decides not to go full crazy without demagogue support. Democrats win three straight elections as MAGA Republicans get roped into SovCit demonstrations that have no popular support at all.
If there’s anything I would not fault somebody about, it’s misunderstanding sampling in a statistical sense. Just about the biggest case of “plug into formula and pray” of all of my classes I took. I’m looking back and it’s just Greek letters to me now…
Younger generations also need appropriate internet socialization for the social medias. Need to not live under a rock but also not go off the deep end of Insta or 4chan, respectively.
The finer details of making friends on a discord server befuddles me.
His forehead constitutes 50% of his face but is relatively clean. We need more scabbed over zits.
Not a proper orthographic projection. The top view “B” has to be drawn above the front view “oo” and rotated 90 degrees clockwise in alignment. Also, the front is presumably a sectional view so there should be a cutting plane line or two somewhere with appropriate crosshatching.
Looks like a Madlibs entry
NESTLE and THE CCP are teaming up to buy SPAMCALLERS
H&K is just about the worst offender here, JonTron a close second.
Red Crescent is Red Cross’s marketed symbol for Islamic countries, as per Ottoman Empire’s request circa 1906. Just in case it didn’t ring a bell for anyone else.
Putin shared a tearful memory of the times they shared on the website formerly known as Twitter, just minutes before he was found dead after exiting a window fifteen stories high.
